Key findings

  • Behavioural improvement after training
  • Only partial learning of anterior cingulate regulation
  • Resting EEG normalized individually rather than in one direction

A study of tomographic (sLORETA-based) neurofeedback targeting the anterior cingulate in children with ADHD. Behaviour improved, but the children showed only partial learning of the targeted activity, raising questions about how much of the benefit came from the specific training.
